What can you expect across County Antrim?
We work right across County Antrim, including Belfast, Lisburn, Newtownabbey and Ballymena. Rules on frontages and shutters differ from one council to the next. Councils here include Belfast, Antrim and Newtownabbey and Mid and East Antrim. Belfast has a city centre and long arterial routes, and towns such as Lisburn, Ballymena and Carrickfergus each have their own main streets.
What should you think about first?
How do you deal with the threshold?
We aim for level or near-level access. New doors need thought about wheelchair and pushchair users, and we check the floor before we promise anything.
Can I keep trading during the work?
Often, in part. Fitting days can be planned for your quiet days, and closed-day or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Which glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.

Will this need planning permission across County Antrim?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to your council. In Northern Ireland, councils decide planning applications, and Building Control applications are separate. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
